Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 236 - 237: Life Is Looking More Hopeful

"Oh my goodness, guys, I’m so lucky today hahaha! While I was at my food stall, I ran into Boss Wang and the lady boss. They’re both so good-looking and young! The lady boss is super nice too; she even offered to take a picture with Boss Wang and me. I’m going to get this photo printed and put it on my stall. I hope I can sell goods half as fast as Boss Wang hehe. By the way, Boss Wang also complimented my taro ball sweet soup!"

After receiving the photo, Chen Meng couldn’t wait to share it in the group chat once Wang Fan and his companion walked away.

"I’m at Guangfu Longdong Snack Street, all friends visiting Guangfu, come try it out."

As soon as Chen Meng posted the photo, everyone in the group chat howled excitedly.

"Boss Wang is really handsome, and standing next to the young lady, they have that cute height difference."

"The young lady is so pretty, is the lady boss really okay with you two taking pictures together?"

"Does the young lady have a boyfriend? I not only love taro balls, but I’m also single."

Shen Teng jumped in: "I’ve already got my ticket for the next day’s comic convention. After seeing Boss Wang, I’m going to support the young lady’s business. By the way, is the lady boss you mentioned this assistant? @Zhuo Qianqian"

He was still holding a grudge about Wang Fan and his companion leaving him alone in Yunnan.

"Just you wait, I’m going to give you guys a hard time at the convention."

Shen Yu replied: "Do you really think you can give Boss Wang a hard time? One mention of ’limited edition’ from him, and you’ll be groveling."

Shen Teng thought it was true; Boss Wang always knows how to handle his customers, often doing things like offering limited quantities or random releases. When has anyone ever managed to handle him?

"If I can’t handle Boss Wang, I’ll find someone to handle his two apprentices in Zibo!"

"Pfft... just spare them, look at how miserable they are hahahaha."

Chu Tian, while messaging, snapped a picture of Li Wei and Feng Haoyu: "Sorry, I came around again, this is what the brothers look like now."

"Why are their stalls right next to each other?"

"Wow, is the hype in Zibo still going strong?"

"Right, didn’t I hear some of them went out of business?"

Chu Tian chuckled: "You don’t get it, do you? The ones that went under were the capital sharks that smelled blood. After they bought the places at high prices, they were waiting to resell, but the authorities directly cut them off by establishing a special barbecue zone with really cheap rent. The capitalists suffered heavy losses, but the small vendors are thriving. The brothers were placed together, one does tender barbecue, the other crisp—it’s a famous duo here."

"Incredible, this management is amazing."

"Really impressive."

...

Wang Fan had heard that Guangfu people’s nightlife was extremely rich and lasted for a long time.

In Beijing, regular workers usually play until about 11 o’clock before heading home, but it’s 11 o’clock now at the Dragon Cave Snack Street, and the crowd is not diminishing. In fact, there seems to be more and more people.

Compared to the energetic faces of these people, Zhuo Qianqian’s face was already clearly saying "I’m so sleepy."

She had eaten lots of snacks during this outing, her mouth never taking a break.

"How about we head back?"

"No, I haven’t had enough yet..."

Sleepy Zhuo Qianqian denied it, clinging to Wang Fan’s arm and leaning against him.

Wang Fan shook his head speechlessly; she was almost fainting but still thinking about eating, truly living up to the foodie character profile.

Bending down to lift Zhuo Qianqian up onto his back amidst surprised and admiring glances from the crowd.

He walked steadily towards the parking lot.

This picture, full of boyfriend strength, made the passing young ladies envious.

"Wow, so manly, he looks like he’s really strong."

"He’s really tall, with a broad back, it looks like it’d be really comfortable to lie on it. I really want to ask for his contact information."

"They clearly look like a couple, why are you getting involved?"

"Hmph, as long as you wield the hoe well, no corner is undefeatable!"

Wang Fan’s face turned a bit red; he really didn’t expect the girls of Guangfu to speak so bluntly.

He sped up his pace slightly, not wanting to be surrounded and also wanting to return to the RV quickly. After all, having eaten so much, skipping washing up and going straight to sleep wouldn’t do.

He suspected that if he slowed down, the little foodie on his back might just sleep unconscious.

"Hang in there, wash up first and then sleep."

Wang Fan, while walking, kept talking to Zhuo Qianqian. Although she hadn’t fully fallen asleep, she kept mumbling something softly.

Wang Fan couldn’t quite hear, so he leaned his ear closer to her mouth.

"So delicious... it wasn’t in vain that I awaited it for so long... the hand-torn chicken is also good..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Fan was speechless. She was almost asleep and still thinking about food; the most puzzling part was she never seemed to gain weight despite eating so much.

"But... hehe... nothing’s as good as my boyfriend’s cooking..."

"Thud!"

Wang Fan felt his heart skip a beat violently, the rush felt like he had eaten a Ginseng Fruit, and every cell in his body was cheering.

"Great taste!"

Wang Fan praised her, suddenly feeling invigorated, ready to take on anything.

The biggest advantage of an RV is that you can sleep as soon as you get in, not needing to drive home like in other cars.

After finally getting Zhuo Qianqian settled in, Wang Fan lay on his bed.

He took out his phone, clicked on ’Second Uncle’s’ avatar, and sent a message saying "I have a girlfriend now," before falling into a deep sleep, unable to resist his drowsiness.

Second Uncle had just finished washing up and was about to go to sleep.

Upon hearing the special notification sound on his phone, he quickly opened his phone to check.

"Whoa, the brat finally figured it out!"

Seeing those five words, Second Uncle was so happy that he almost jumped up.

"Who’s the girl? How old is she this year? What does she do? Any photos, send me to take a look."

Messages fired off like a volley, yet despite waiting eagerly, there was no reply, leaving Second Uncle anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Hey, this brat doesn’t even answer the phone! Sent the message and just fell asleep, huh?"

He tried calling and sending voice messages, but there was no response, making Second Uncle fume with frustration.

Couldn’t he save this for the daytime? Saying half of it and leaving me an old man here, how am I supposed to sleep now?!

The two things I hate most in my life: one, saying things halfway!

He tossed his phone aside angrily and closed his eyes, but sleep evaded him.

He began to imagine what kind of girl his nephew had found, her looks, her personality.

And then he couldn’t help but imagine the two of them having kids and himself helping to care for them, little kids crawling all over him, even accidentally peeing on him.

"Hehehe..."

The more Second Uncle thought, the happier he felt, feeling that his life was becoming more hopeful.
